Review # 1 was written on 2016-03-27 00:00:00 Steven Cybulski Good info, but boring This book is a look at the Enquirer and its place in American journalism. It takes more of a scholarly approach and seems well researched, but the presentation is boring. If you're interested in the publisher and the family, read Deeds of My Father by Paul David Pope, son of the Enquirer founder.

Review # 2 was written on 2013-06-24 00:00:00 Thomas Brahm - Generoso pretty much created the American tabloid of today, although he remains one of the least-known media magnates of the second half of the 20th Century - family connections to various New York City Mafia figures, friendship with mob attorney Roy Cohn, and briefly working for the C.I.A.
